This school year in Boherbue N.S we are taking part in the Active School Flag initiative, and working towards our second active flag.

This is a whole school initiative, and we are so excited. As an active school, we promote a school where physical activity is valued, promoted, and enjoyed by all. The initiative is to move well and move often.

The active school flag strives to achieve ‘More schools. More active. More often.’

At its best, the active school flag promotes physical activity in a fun, positive and inclusive way.

Active schools are encouraged to strengthen their PE programme and are supported to identify strategies to energise the school day and to reduce sedentary time!!!

This project will be divided into 4 sections - Physical Activity, Physical Education, Partnership and Active School Week. Keep up to date with our website to see what fun activities the children of Boherbue N.S get up to throughout the year.

🎃👻💀🤾 Halloween Tin Cans

On a recent Active Schools webinar - we got given the great idea of making Halloween tin cans. The children were so helpful over the past few weeks bringing in used cans and then decorating them with spooky designs. We definitely enjoyed playing games with these Halloween tin cans on the day of the holidays!

Active Halloween

As part of our Active Schools campaign, all children in Boherbue N.S took part in a spooky dance off in their costumes. Movement and activity breaks are an essential part of keeping children active! This was an excellent opportunity to incorporate some dance in to our day.
